Smoking affects hematological markers both acutely and chronically. The current study's objective was to evaluate the severity of the negative effects of cigarette smoking on biochemical traits in healthy smokers. This study included 280 participants, only 56 smokers and 100 non-smokers. They were smoking for three years, the smokers regularly smoked 10 to 20 cigarettes per day. The fully automatic hematological analyzer CELL-DYN 3700 examined the total number of blood cells. White blood cells (p0,001), hemoglobin (p=0,042), mean corpuscular volume (p=0,001), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (p0,001) were all considerably greater in the smokers. No other measured metrics varied considerably from one another. Red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and mean corpuscular hemoglobin were all significantly higher (p0,001) in male smokers compared to female smokers after smoking cigarettes.: Our study concluded that smoking cigarettes continuously has severe negative effects on hematological variables, including hemoglobin, white blood cell count, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, red blood cell count, and hematocrit. These modifications may be linked to an increased risk of polycythemia vera, atherosclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and/or cardiovascular diseases.","PeriodicalId":14553,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Medical Microbiology and Tropical Diseases","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83503853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dengue fever and its more serious forms, dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome are becoming important public health problems. Since there is no immunoprophylaxis or specific antiviral therapy available, clinico-microbiological diagnosis plays a vital role in patient management and implementation of control measures. : To identify dengue seropositive patients by NS1 antigen and anti-dengue IgM antibody detection by ELISA and correlate the changes in epidemiology. A retrospective study was performed for a period of 5 years from January 2017 to December 2021 in A.J Institute of Medical Sciences & Research Centre, Mangaluru. 1871 seropositive cases of all age groups admitted in the medical wards were included. Rapid immunochromatography test and ELISA was performed to detect NS1 antigen and IgM antibodies. Platelet count and total leucocyte count were also analysed. : Out of 14656, 1871 samples (12.75%) were positive for dengue. Higher rate of cases were in males and the age group of 21 to 30 years were chiefly affected. 1158(61.89%) were positive for NS1 antigen and total positive cases for IgM antibody was 530(28.32%). About 183 (9.79%) cases were positive for both NS1 antigen and IgM antibody. An increase in the prevalence of dengue was recorded during the month of June to October. The present study indicates a decline in dengue infection from 2020 which may be attributable to preventive and control measures provided by the health care workers besides having increased awareness among people. The decline may also may be due to the outbreak of SARS –Cov-2 in December 2019, which led to under diagnosis of dengue cases.","PeriodicalId":14553,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Medical Microbiology and Tropical Diseases","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83882797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A retrospective study was conducted for a study period of 11months (June 2021-April 2022) in Vydehi Hospital, Bangalore. All patients admitted to the intensive care unit and wards were included in the study. Intervention period was 6 months (June 2021-Nov 2021) and post-intervention period was 5 months (Dec 2021- April 2022). Assessment of HAIs was made based on the criteria from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The multifaceted intervention consisted of hand hygiene campaign, isolation of multidrug resistance organism’s patients, water and air quality analysis, training of health care workers in infection control practices, and antibiotic stewardship. Data was collected using an identical method in the intervention and post intervention periods.We observed a major reduction in HAIs, from 89% (198/222 patients) in the intervention period to 10.8% (24/222 patients) in the post intervention period (relative risk (RR) (95% CI) 0.48 (0.31 to 0.56). Antibiotic use in ICUs declined from 58% (780/1347) to 44% (442/995) (RR 0.44 (0.40 to 0.55).
